1000 Tögrög Year of the Pig

Part of Mongolia's lunar new year series issued through the mid-1990s, these small gold pieces were produced primarily for the collector export market — Mongolia had no meaningful domestic demand for investment-grade gold coinage at the time. The .999 fineness and 3.11g weight peg it squarely to a tenth-ounce format, designed to compete in the international bullion-gift coin space dominated at the time by Chinese Panda fractions.

Mintages for this series were extremely low and inconsistently documented by the Mongolian State Bank.
